It is. The differece is that Silverbullet is self-hosted and not in app like Obsidian. The basics are the same, Obsidian has a way bigger community and more plugins, Silverbullet is easier to extend due to using Lua. Lastly, Silverbullet has queries built in, in Obsidian you have to use Dataview. If you need a markdown-based note storing system Silverbullet is great. Obsidian has more bling and customizability, but is not self-hostable.

It should have a system to log experiments as well as have basic (maybe even more) inventory management. As far as I remember it dous not need any “big” hardware, so just using an older computer with a good backup strategy should work fine.

They are responsible for getting both “data protection adequacy agreements” for the US thrown out in court (see Max Schrems).

We had two Bokashi buckets but it never worked that well for us. The buckets were smelling quite bad, maybe we made some mistake. I really like the concept, but for only having a small balcony and not much space for flowers and plants, it was not worth it.
